Remove the center section of the release liner to expose the tape.

Set the batten strip on top of the exposed tape along the length of the seam.

STEP ##6 REMOVE REMAINING LINERS Simultaneously remove the last two release liners by peeling them back parallel to the roof surface and away from the splice at a 45ยบ angle.

IF PREFERRED, REMOVE THE LOWER OUTER RELEASE LINER FIRST, FOLLOWED BY THE TOP RELEASE LINER, BEING CAREFUL NOT TO EXCEED 18" OF DISTANCE BETWEEN THE TWO.

STEP ##67 HAND-ROLL LAP LINE To ensure proper lap adhesion around the batten strip, hand-roll with a 2"-wide roller along both sides of the splice of the polymer batten strip.
